Tn your paper of the 10th Feb.

In your paper of the 10th Feb.
you say a postal card from Hilo
says: A lava flow has broken out
on the side of Mauna Loa, and is
evidently running down the noun
tain towards Kapapala or vicinity.
l don't wish to say your correspon-
dent has wilfully fabricated this
item of news. 1t may have been
told him by some one else, but do
deny the truth of it, no light has
appeared on Mauna Loa, neither has
any lava been running or is run
ming towards "Kapapala," or any
where else on this side of the noun
tain. The only signs of Mauna Loa
being alive, as seen from here, has
been the rising of steam or vapour
from the summit, and that not in
large quantities. In conclusion Of
my remarks OH this matter, l must
say that many of the accounts sent
to the papers, of the late earth
quakes and volcanic outbreak were
much exaggerated. We residents
of Kau certainly had bad enough
time of it, but some accounts made
it look worse. Asking for the in.
sertion of this in an early issue

NO LAVA FLOW,

EDIToR BULLETIN:--1n your issue
of Feb. 10th, see, that someone
has written from Hilo, saying, that
"a lava flow has broken out on the
side of Mauna Loa, and is evidently
running down the mountain towards
Kapapala, etc." Now, as l reside
at Kapapala, and have beautiful
view of the mountain, l want to
contradict this statement, and say
that nothing like lava flow, has
been seen, on or near Kapapala.
1t seems to me, that Hawaii has a
good many would-be volcano pro-
phets on it, who have, and are pre-
dieting lava flows every day. Peo-
pie in Honolulu had better stay
there until they hear from good au-
thority that a lava flow is on Tits
way down, this side of the noun
tain, before they start up to see it,
or they will be sure to get a
''hoka."
A native, who resides here, and
who guided the Rev. f. z. Baker
to the summit of the mountain
where the snow was at its heaviest
wishes to say, he will guide any
party or parties, to Mokuaweoweo
and back, snow or no snow.

UNF0UNDED RUMORS

EDITOR BULLETIN What is the
matter with the HilO people, espe-
cially with those of the so-called
experts of volcanic phenomena! 1t
has not been possible during the
past few weeks to take up a weekly
paper in which there does not APP
pear some alarming account of u
lava flow breaking out or about to
break out from Mauna Loa. Most
Of these alarms come from Hilo.
Now, as far rs the view of Mauna
Loa from this place extends, and it
is a clear one to the summit when
the mountain is free from the clouds,
there has been nothing occurring to
cause such alarming accounts.
There has certainly been little
steam arising from ,Mokuaweoweo
now and again, since the first out
break, but not to the extent spoken Of,
and l fail to see anything alarming
in this. Is not steam constantly
arising at Kilauea? And is any one
alarmed at it Why then should it be
predicted that another outbreak of
lava is about to occur from Mauna
Loa because Mokuaweoweo is steam
ing? Mr.. Hitchcock says he is
very certain another flow of lava
must occur, because no pahoehoe
was emitted at the last one, his rea-
son for this assertion being that the
flows Of previous occasions have
brought forth both aa and pahoe-
hoe. Can this gentleman prove
these two kinds of lava are not of
the same substance, and the diffe-
renee is not caused after it leaves
the earth! one very good authority
(Capt. Dutton), / believes gives it
as bis opinion that "a is formed by
the lava being CONCEALED by the
cold air when being thrown to
great height, as it leaves the earth,
but the question still seems an open
one and / shall be glad to be in
structed on it; but do think that
Mr.. ii. gives poor reason for as
serting that another outbreak will
occur at an early day. Is there
any record in previous times of one
flow following so quickly after an
other? The S0--81 flow to Hilo did
certainly at one time slackenits out.
put, and then start up with renewed
vigor, but from its commencement it
did not cease running until its final
on 9th August 81.

RUMORS OF WAR.

The Australia brought no news of
European war commenced, but
news that seem to indicate that q
European war is being nearly
reached on the programme Of events.
If one allows himself to be carried
away with all the latest rumors and
opinions, he cannot evade the belief
that war is near at hand. But we
have been fooled over and over
again in the recent past, which makes
us more sparing Of credulity in the
present. That a great European
war is brewing, and will ultimately
be placed on tap, is universally con-
ceded. As to when the brewing
process will be completed, is ques-
tion which no one can definitely set
tie at present. 1t may be during
the coming summer, or the time
may be postponed to some indefinite
period in the future. When we hear
the sound Of the cannon, or learn
from credible testimony that others
have heard it, then we shall know
that war has commenced.

LOCAL INDUSTRIES.
TAHITI LEMONADE WORKS.

The Tahiti Lemonade Works, at
Sunny South, on the road half way
to Makiki, established there for the
pure artesian water since 1884, are
well worth a visit, for their spacious
ness, completeness and the beauti-
full machinery employed. Their
inspection will amply recompense
anyone, and cspecially-if he be in
quisitive as to the process of making
aerated waters, of which such enor-
nous and ever-increasing quantities
are consumed daily and hourly all
over the world.
BY the Glengaber, now in port,
the proprietor has lately received an
anti-atmospheric apparatus, Nc
Ewen's patent, owned by Mr.. d.
Rylands, of Barnsley, Yorkshire,
England, and which is fast throwing
out of use all the old systems. This
machine is specially designed for
producing aerated waters of excep-
tlonal purity and strength, from
which, during the process Of making,
all impurities are scientifically re-
moved, and all atmospheric air ex-
cluded, whilst having power of
several hundred dozen per day.
For the benefit Of those not in
formed, it may be here stated that
there are two systems of making
gaseous waters, viz: the American
or intermittent, and the European
or continuous, the difference between
the two being easily understood.
The American plan consists in
placing two or more cylinders, con-
nected by tubing, side by side; in
the first of which the gas is pro-
duced by allowing sulphuric acid to
run down from the generator above,
on to the carbonate or whiting be-
low, and which gas by the pressure
evolved rushes with great force into
the second cylinder, and commingles
there with the water previously placed
in it for the purpose of saturation.
In this process neither pump nor
gasometer is used, and the opera
ton is perfectly simple, ingenious,
and economical.
The European or continuous sys-
TEN, universally adopted in England
and throughout the continent of
Europe, does not permit the repudi-
alton of either the pump or the
gasometer, as the high scientific
authorities on the subject declare
the gasometer to be absolutely in
dispensable in every apparatus,
intended to produce an article of
ommerce--aerated waters health
full and perfectly pure; notwith-
standing the pretensions of those
who, for their own ends, assert they
believe, or would have others believe,
that both gasometer and pump may
be suppressed with impunity.
The utility of the gasometer is
evident after little investigation
and study. 1t stores and expands
the gas after it has been purified by
passing, in its way from the gener-
ator, through sixty to a hundred
gallons of water. The use Of
powerful pumps is equally recog-
nizable, as their arranged speed
keeps the pressure in the cylinders
always at the same height, and this
can be done by no other known
method.
To return to the Tahiti Lemonade
Works, this, we believe, is the only
mandatory on these islands using
